Agree.

The problem is, was one project created just for being used together with
other OpenStack projects or it could be used perfectly in standalone mode?
There are a lot of projects nowadays in OpenStack besides the several most
important ones (Nova, Cinder, Neutron, Keystone, Glance, etc.). Most new
projects will say they can be used separately without necessarily in
OpenStack deployment, the question is, what are the advantages of the
project over the existing solutions? If the operators could get more
benefit by deploying and maintaining a new service than using a
pre-existing one?

Just my $0.0000002
